NOW these 2 powerful sites have combinedand Goofram now displays both options on the same page. Give it a try!

Technology Nights for Families

Did you know that there are over ONE MILLION educational wikispaces like this assisting students and teachers, supporting teaching and learning!! And they are free!!

Here are examples of ICT Education Resources wikis:

• Cool Tools 4 Schools. - just like the name says
• http://web20guru.wikispaces.com/Tools+By+Subject
  
• http://amna-forum-for-arabic-resources.wikispaces.com/
  

I got all my resources together and planned my site. Then it was very simple, a few mouse clicks to upload the materials and then a few more to embed the videos on the page. Finished

In fact the word 'wiki' means quick in Hawaiian language. 'Wiki wiki' means really quick!

This is where I hope to share fun and useful resources for education. Enjoy!

Hope you enjoy the site. You might like to start up your own wiki!
